Well it does not screw geo. In fact the axle to crown measurement with a 29er wheel in on a 26″ fork is actually the same as the bouncy fork I replaced.
Umm. Yeah. Why wouldn’t it be? Try comparing the ground to crown height. and I didn’t say it would screw, I said it would screw with. Different meaning.
@geex 29″ rolls over stuff better, sure, no arguments here. I might be stuck in the past but that’s more a financial thing than being a luddite. How about the smaller wheel on the back though?
In a totally non-scientific way, it made a significant difference. Rolls (over stuff) better, raising the front a touch and slackening the HA a notch did seem to make for a more confident ride.
That’s more what I was after, so it’s basically a ghetto method of achieving what an angleset also accomplishes.
